Screen object

Example
The following example checks to see if the current document is a slide or form, and if it is, retrieves and shows the
sequence of screens in the Output panel:

if(fl.getDocumentDOM().allowScreens) {

var myCurrent = fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.rootScreen.childScreens[1].name;

var myNext = fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.rootScreen.childScreens[1].prevScreen.name;

}

screen.silent

Availability

Usage

screen.silent

Description
Property; a Boolean value that specifies whether the object is accessible. This is equivalent to the inverse logic of the
Make Object Accessible setting in the Accessibility panel. That is, if

silent

is

true

, it is the same as having the Make

Object Accessible option deselected in the Accessibility panel. If

silent

is

false

, it is the same as having the Make

Object Accessible option selected in the Accessibility panel.

Example
The following example retrieves the

silent

value of the object (a value of

false

means the object is accessible):

var isSilent = fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].silent;

The following example sets the object to be accessible:

fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].silent = false;

screen.tabIndex

Availability
Flash MX 2004.

Usage

screen.tabIndex

Description
Property; equivalent to the Tab Index field in the Accessibility panel. This value lets you determine the order in which
